It remembers the Shipbullding GeorGe Wes 2gt2 Trust and the long line of New Jer- 6ey stock company exploitations. It recalls the life insurance revelations. Il has now before it the graft in the railroad which had a world repute for probity. It knows our shortcomings in food adulteration, in patent med- icine fabrication, in whiskey “rectifying.” If Yankee smartness is not Synonymous with trickery abroad it is not because we have neglected any opportunity to make it so, For a generation we have been trading on a reputation for business honesty and fair dealing which it took a century to acquire. It is time we were redeeming it and reverting to old standards. It is time we threw over the industrial Napoleons and went back to Washington, whose flour and tobacco with the Mount Vernon brand on it commanded absolute con- fidence and passed the inspectors unque: Sending commercial criminals to ccomplish something as a Quarantee of good faith, but if America’s credit in the world’s markets is to be re-established there must be a reform of corrupt business practices from the ground up. But if the spectre of a world boycott of American goods is to be banished, it must be through an adherence to Washington ideals of business honesty. ors. It !s to he hoped that the interests of Justice have been fully subserved tn the Patrick case and that it will no longer clog the courts. As Recorder Goff perti- nently says, to set aside the verdict of a Jury and the solemn Judgment of a court | ‘on the insufficient new evidence produced would be “more of a perversion than | & promotion of Justice.” A prolongation of the four years’ battle in behalf of the! prisoner would be a wanton misuse of legal safeguards. A CATSPAW ONLY?

That pressure can now be applied with some prospect that the debt will be paid is owing to the competing com- y) i pany’s vigorous attempts to invade the monopoly’s territory. It is owing LAX to the insistence of the new company in pushing its claims that the trust has been moved to promise reasonable rates. The threshing over of the| [} questions brought up in the contest has done more to bring the trust to terms than has been accomplished in twenty years of desultory agitation. It is not to be assumed that the Atlantic went into the fight for the purpose of performing a public service. Yet that is exactly what it has done, and the public is to that extent under an obligation of gratitude to it. There is no guarantee that if the new company secures a franchise it will not some day be absorbed by the existing c any and the monopoly of } the latter made absolute. But the discu de a cheap telephone service something more than a dream, The Atlantic has been used as a catspaw with excellent results—for the public., Whatever else it may get, it is at least entitled to thanks, EAVES VATA CVAAEETEDESETT ENE TSOVENTEERTUNEAATATENTSAARTASTAAS CAALAAALSEANANASAAA TA SSTRIASURTADES TASES EES EDEEUSTMALSASSELESA EL USS lasquerader by MMatherine | (Copyright, 1903, 1901, by liarper & SSS CHAPTER XXIV. “Give it t Lod Quick as you can!
